About this Item
Vintage Port Magnum, 1948
1 (1 x 1) 1500ml
KWV has been a traditional mainstay of the South African wine scene for decades. Founded in the same year Nelson Mandela was born, KWV has seen how the SA wine industry has changed over the years.
The 1948 received many accolades in its early life, but was awarded the Trophy for Best Museum Class Cape Port at the Old Mutual Trophy Wine Show Awards 2016. The Magnums are even fresher than 750ml and are now truly rare.
Critics Ratings
The 1948 has been a consistent and thrilling wine for many decades. Composed, warming and complex, with the Tawny hues balanced by red fruits, spicy notes and raisin sweetness.’ - Roland Peens 2015, 95 points
